    I've flown from the South Terminal a lot going on Holiday and there's 2 other sets of lifts in the South Terminal car park. Another set of 3rd Generation Ecodiscs and also some 1st Generation ones which I suspect are mods of an older lifts.
    Airside there were some glass lifts which I think may have been Schindler which have now been replaced with EuroLifts and also some D series lifts which have been replaced with Ecodiscs. I think I saw another lift near the D series though I don't know what it was.

      Those buttons should be callbuttons with cabin pressels because of the wiring, you can't wire Kone KSS cabine buttons on an non LCE controller

    In a local shopping centre that opened in 1988 they used to have a galas semicircular shaped lift however in 2012 it was replaced with a Schindler lift just like the one there but it was a glass version! They also in 2020-2021 installed an identical glass lift in another area of the centre! :)

    8:58 That is an american Westinghouse lantern, the one used from the 1950s to the 70s. As far as I know, Westinghouse did not have elevator/lift operations in the UK, the closest equivalent would be their partnership with Express. However there was Westinghouse in France and Germany, and those operations were bought by KONE in 1975, there is a Kone right besides... maybe they also had a small presence in the UK too?

    20:36 The priority service don't works like that.
    Usually on Otis MCS controllers, you can't call the lift from the landing buttons, and if the priority service is disabled, the door have to close like on normal mode.

    The South terminal hotel (Hilton) lift are Kone M series lifts modernized by generic? I may be wrong but that hotel building is a little old. There is also a new part of the hotel which had 3rd generation ecodiscs (you missed those lifts). Those lifts have 1st generation fixtures but with the 3rd generation motor.

    What was wrong with the Otis at 20:00

    • @benolifts
      @benolifts  10 років тому +1

      Doggy connection in the priority key switch. I think the key was turning back slightly or something making it go in and out of attendant mode making the it sort of reset (and the doors open) each time the mode is changed.

    • @elevatorsinrussia2597
      @elevatorsinrussia2597 10 років тому +1

      Maybe it's the door problem.

    • @benolifts
      @benolifts  10 років тому +1

      ***** I don't think its the doors that are causing the problem. I was testing this lift for a lot longer but didn't include this in the lift tour as it was too long (I was amazed that security didn't come! as I must have gone up and down 10 times!). When it wasn't in priority service it worked fine. The lift gets confused if priority service is turned off while it is moving. One time it refused to open the doors at the first floor. In priority service the doors re open if you let go of the button. If the key is taken out when the doors are closing in priority service then they will reopen and the floor pressed will be cancelled. When in priority service the lift didn't always behave as expected which leads me to think there is a doggy connection in the key switch.

    If you get a chance, heathrow Terminal 2 has some of those nice new style Schindler in the carpark (which I sadly didn't get to film as they were so busy). I did film some of Eurolift style Schindler's inside (pretty much the whole terminal is Airside, apart from the carpark). You may also want to consider paying to use the Hotel Hoppa, as it actually is different from a normal E200 as it makes the same sound as the Hong Kong & New Zealand ones, as opposed to the UK sound (You'll see my video it soon, or else you can watch another video of an NZ E200 on my Channel). ua-cam.com/video/1tyDvhXIKVA/v-deo.html

      Not if you compare them closely.

    • @NetworkerExpress
      @NetworkerExpress 9 років тому +1

      Alex Ellis The NZ and HK ones are, I believe, fitted with a 6-cylinder Cummins ISBe, hence they sound different.

    Otis US and UK elevators used to all have the same fixtures. Then what happened? I love seeing Series 1 in UK, and now I wonder why UK can’t get Series 2, 3, 5 or 7! And consistency such as double chime for going down and single for going up.

    • @benolifts
      @benolifts  9 років тому

      BenjaminSnyder100 It is a full replacement. None of the old lift is left (except maybe the chassis). This lift does not run like a modded lift, it definitely is an ecodisc. You can even hear the classic sound of the 3rd gen ecodisc brakes.

    • @benjaminsnyder4183
      @benjaminsnyder4183 9 років тому

      Not an Ecodisc. It is at least a kone. Can you do another Generic Lift Factor?

    • @benolifts
      @benolifts  9 років тому

      BenjaminSnyder100 It is an Ecodisc. It is a full replacement of the old lift rather than a mod. What makes you think it isn't an Ecodisc?

    I think it is so Great how excited you are to ride the little transit train between north and south terminals
    I had to laugh
    I always really really hate this stupid train thing and the stupid voice
    on the stupid PA which really gets on everyone's nerves
    because I only ever have to ride it
    when my plane has landed at the stupid north terminal which
    i really hate because it means that it will take me about 40 mins longer to get through passport control
    and to the train home
    and at 2.30 AM after a long flight that is a big deal !
    because i am knackered and just want my bed
    and i do not want to wait for a blasted train EVER ETERNITY
    I love your videos they are very interesting
    to be honest i never really even notice the lifts
    but you make them seem so very exciting
    i wish i felt the way you do about them
    i think its great how excited you sound

    • @benolifts
      @benolifts  10 років тому +2

      I really like automation systems. I am interested in the technology (especially the old ones from the 80s). Small railways are fun and inspiring. I love the way they run with no staff about. These sorts of systems have far more character than irritating long distance trains which I get bored on.
      I didn't realize that it takes a lot longer to get of the plain at the north terminal.
      I enjoy exploring buildings, riding the lifts and seeing what parts I can get into that I'm not supposed to be in. HEHE!
      The most disappointing thing about the airport is that none of the old service lifts had original leveling.

      have you been up inside the shard
      it costs too much money
      my friend went she said it cost her £50 to go up there that's so expensive i think
      yes it takes a lot longer to get to the train if the aeroplane lands at north terminal
      although they always say it on;y takes a few minutes more its more like 40 mins even if you walk fast
      I really hate airports all that uncomfortable furniture and customs
      has taken all of the fun out of travelling
      did you watch that lift prank video i sent you ?
      did you like it
      could you make creepy lift videos
